VKK Patentanwälte

Experience | Expertise | Know-how

We are an internationally operating IP law firm specializing in worldwide prosecution, enforcement and litigation of intellectual property rights.

Client focus

Our efforts are centered around our clients’ needs at all times. Following an intensive and individual analysis to determine each client’s specific requirements we look for creative and economically feasible solutions, taking advantage of our longstanding international relations in the IP-business. Our clients are chiefly domestic medium-sized enterprises, but also include research institutions, individuals, and large entities based in Germany, Europe as well as Japan, Korea, China and the US.

Patent and utility law & trademark and design law

Our field of competence equally spans national and international patent and utility model law as well as national and international trademark and design law. Owed to strengthening of design protection in the European Union in recent years, the prosecution and enforcement of registered designs both nationally and internationally has gained importance to many of our clients.

Employee inventions, licencing and litigation

Furthermore we assist our clients in issues relating to the legislation of employee inventions (ArbEG), licencing, and litigation. We are registered to represent clients before the German Patent and Trademark Office, before the Office for Harmonisation in the Internal Market (OHIM), and before the International Bureau of WIPO in Geneva. In cooperation with our longstanding network of German attorneys-at-law we co-represent our clients before all competent German district courts in all matters related to infringements of intellectual property rights. In the field of trademark law our practice has seen a number of cases concerning collisions between registered trademarks and identical domains registered by third parties.
